I Love My Garden

My garden is one of my favorite places. It has taken me a few years to adjust to living in the South and learn what plants work here. Finally, I am seeing success! Also, I branched out and have 3 tomato plants and 5 cucumber plants this year. I don't have a good space for a vegetable garden, so the veggies are hanging out in the flower garden. (ah, suburban living!)

I love being able to sit on my front porch in the early morning or after Ladybug (2 years old) goes to bed. The peace and quiet is amazingly refreshing!

I thought I would share my garden with you today!

Several of my day lilies - I just love the color variationsMy cucumbers

My tomatoes are in topsy turvy growers (this was taken a few weeks ago, so they are much bigger now!)And we call this "Susie's Garden" in memory of our first daughter. Another reason to love hanging out in this space!

I love it. :) Your little garden is growing beautifully. Have you ever used the Topsy Turvy before? I have a neighbor who swears by it, so we got a few this year. I'm a little skeptical, but we'll see!
